This week, Promise Community Homes had the honor of hosting the Creve Coeur Fire Protection District, Mercy Hospital St. Louis, and SwimOn at our indoor pool for a pediatric drowning simulation with a medical training mannequin.
As we enter summer months and the risk of drownings unfortunately increases, emergency responders and clinicians must be prepared to handle these types of situations. The heated, indoor pool at the PCH community center provided a realistic environment where participants in the training were able to practice real-world applications in a drowning scenario.
Promise Community Homes is proud to be able to provide the setting for this imperative training simulation. Fox2Now captured the whole thing and shared tips on how to prevent drownings this summer https://fox2now.com/news/missouri/first-responders-to-train-for-potential-child-drownings/.
